Black Friars - Friars Preachers - Order of Preachers - (OP) The Order of Preachers (OP), or Dominicans, was founded (1215) by Saint Dominic during his preaching tours against the Albigenses in southern France. The Dominicans were friars, receiving rigorous theological training in order to preach and answer objections against the Christian faith. They were to be poor and to travel on foot. The first house of friars was established at Toulouse; approval was given by Pope Honorius III. Earlier, Dominic had founded (1206) a community of nuns at Prouille, composed partly of former Albigenses. Later in the century, the Dominican third order began among the laity; it eventually included many communities of nuns who followed the Dominican third order rule.
